The successful goalkeeper of Manchester United, David de Gea, entered the esports industry with the Rebels Gaming Club. Rebels Gaming will be present in League of Legends, VALORANT, and Rainbow Six Siege for now. It was announced that the team will be based in Madrid. The organization announced its official Twitter account.
Commenting on the team’s official website, rebelsgaming.gg, David de Gea said the following:
The launch of Rebels Gaming within esports is another dream come true.
It is a project that aims to instil to the new generations of young people the main values that have accompanied me since my beginnings in professional football, within a framework of innovation and unparalleled technological development.
We want to enhance motivation, leadership, resilience, the management of situations of success, defeat, and above all, teamwork.
The Rebels Gaming team is already competing in Rainbow Six Siege, one of de Gea’s favorite games. The team in EU Challenger League Season 11 unfortunately finished the group stage in last place. The organization’s Rainbow Six Siege team roster is as follows:
The team is currently competing in Six Masters Iberia Season 1. The organization is working across various departments to build a team of great esports players.
Manchester United striker Sergio Aguero is also one of the footballers who have a team in the esports scene. Krü Esports, the team playing in the Latin America region, earned 10 thousand dollars by winning the VCT 2021: LATAM Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs. Agüero is also a co-streamer for VALORANT LATAM matches.
Jesse Lingard, another Manchester United football player, also entered this sector. With his own organization, JLings Esports, he is in the Rainbow Six Siege scene just like Rebels Gaming.
